1:03 PM: We stopped by the Junction True Value Holiday Open House to check in with the West Seattle Food Bank, which is accepting food donations – including turkeys – and money to help pay for some it’s already bought. That’s Heather from the WSFB in our photo.
If you can’t get there (4747 44th SW) by 2 pm, you can also bring nonperishable food to the 20th annual Beer Church Turkey Bowl tonight, 5:30-8 pm at West Seattle Bowl (39th/Oregon) – you don’t have to be a bowler to stop by and not only donate, but also to try the newly released benefit Beer Church IPA, get a ticket for the fundraising raffle. Watch our West Seattle Holiday Guide for other seasonal donation drives!
3:14 PM: Jan Roberts, vice president of the Food Bank board, shared more photos from the True Value open house. Below, third-generation store owner Bruce Davis:

As noted in our preview – you can also support the WSFB financially by donating online.
